DatapacksJava
Evaporated Waterfalls
I don't know my version or loader
Open the Minecraft launcher and look at the profile you play on — it names both, like fabric-loader-1.21.4. The version also shows in the bottom-right corner of the game's main menu.
No loader in the profile name? Then it's plain Minecraft, and these mods won't run — you need Fabric or NeoForge installed first.

This datapack/mod changes the generation of water springs to spawn way less often at higher y-levels, and more often at lower y-levels. This also caps waterfalls to only generate below y-level 160. And to match, lava streams (aka lavafalls), have also been reduced in general.
This reduces the likelyhood of waterfalls & lava streams flooding areas and ruin good-looking terrain. As well as reducing the amount of lava streams that lead to forest fires.
